Congratulations to Danny Moretti for being a National Proficiency Finalist in Poultry Production. Danny is in the top 3 at this point for the award. Good luck Danny back at Nationals in late October. You can watch how Danny does on RFDTV during October 29 - November 1.

Well our members all did great at the 3 fairs we attend. Rio Pagliaro won the Supreme Champion Market Hog at the Marin County Fair. She also did well at the Sonoma County Fair having a Champion and Reserve Champion Market Lamb. Rio also competed in the Master Showmanship Contest as well. We won't know if she won for a few days. She won every class in the Breeding Sheep Southdown Show also. Katie Arndt took a Reserve Champion with one of her goats and Mike Edwards also had a Reserve Champion Lamb. Manny Brazil did well also at the Sonoma County Fair winning a Supreme Champion and a Champion with his dairy cattle. Lane Norman took a Reserve Champion with his Angus Market Steer. All 3 fairs went well and even though our numbers were down, Tomales took home lots of ribbons.
